Answer to:
Do you ever judge someone's intelligence based on their religion? Of course! Especially in cases where they can deny scientific facts and evidence based solely on faith. Not just religious people, but people who ignore scientific evidence (I would judge a conservative creationist the same way I would judge an atheist who refuses to vaccinate their children due to fears of autism).

My milk dried up,because my daughter had too weak of a lach! But now I'd like to try and brestfeed her again or at least offer it to her in a bottle or sippy,because it's so good for her.

I have a lot of love for myself and my entire family, I am SO happy I had the opprotunity to live the great life that I have.

AFter that, if the question repeats I say "The answer is xxx, you do not need to ask me again, because the answer will still be xxx" and ignore any more attempts at the same question.

Yes, it is safe to use cold cabbage as a means to help, but it not very helpful for leaking. Cold cabbage compresses are used for engorgement pain after your baby is born.

First off, know how lucky you are to have a good sleeper, Secondly, good for you for breastfeeding! It might help to have clean nursing pads beside the bed for when you wake up. It might help also to have a towel on the bed where you sleep. Pulling some ice packs out of the freezer before bed might help in the middle of the night also.

Is fourteen to young to have sex? That is a personal question that each case will have a diffrent answer to. Here's MY opinon... At 14 years old, sex won't be that enjoyable. One of the main reasons to have sex is because it feels good but with the experience a 14 year old has... It just wouldn't be that great. My suggestion would be to perfect the masturbation thing first.

Should a mother feel guilty for staying with a man for 17years who physically/mentally abused her children? Only guilty enough to drive her to help heal her children. It is likely said mother was also being abused and though people would love to say what they would do in a situation it is often VERY difficult to see the big picture until you are no longer a part of it. Said mother should get herself and her children therapy and tell her children that she is sorry, once and make it meaningful....

Can prenatal vitimans affect a pregnancy test and give a positive sign? No. Pregnancy tests are designed to identify certain hormones that are usualy only in your body during pregnancy, Prenatal vitamins DO NOT contain these hormones or signal your body to make them. The only things that are common to give a false positive are hormones themselves (people taking fertility drugs and other hormone therapy are likely to have false positives)

My little grandaughter aged 3 is so amused by what she calls botty burps that she likes to demonstrate to anyone and everyone. Her dad is beginning to get really cross with her about it. Should he just ignore it? You should support his parenting choice and realize this is not the worst thing that could happen. Leave parenting decisions to the parents and be a kind and loving grandparent.

I have a 1 1/2 year old boxer. he has become very aggressive toward people. No reason, some people he likes some he doesn't. this weekend he jumped thru the front door window after the mailman. He (the boxer) required surgery after severing an artery. This must be very difficult. Aggression towards humans MUST be dealt with and is not something you can let slide or try to deal with. Talk to your vet about his aggression, buy some books about aggressive dogs, it may help pinpoint what his triggers are and get your dog in some obedience classes ASAP. Also I hate to say it but this would be a good time to ensure your dog is fixed.

I believe 13 is too young for sexual related activities. Do you believe this is correct? Why or why not? Well, I'll voice the unpopular opinion and say no. While I think a 13 year old shouldn't be having sexual intercourse, I don't think it's too young for sexual related activities. Masturbation for instance, is something that starts in toddlerhood and I don't think it's healthy to be discouraging a teen to continue to explore thier own body, I think it sends the...

My girlfriend told me last night that she sometimes fantasized about being raped, and asked about roleplaying it. I got really turned off, because totally aside from the moral angle, it just seems gross to me. Why might a girl fantasize about being raped? Being totally submissive is a huge turn on to some, if rape role play is out of the questions, try some other domaneering role play, I'm sure she'd like it. Here's a previous question with some insight. http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/90666

I am currently leasing a room and my landlord has given a key to his girlfriend who is now living there. I have had this situation before and asked him to give me forward notice so that I may remove my valuables he didnt. Is this violating our If you are leasing a room from somebody, that person has no right whatsoever to give anybody the key and give them permission. Furthermore in most places he should have to give you about 24 hours notice if he even wants to come inside to check appliances, etc. If you are paying for a space, then he should NOT be having other people there. Seek Legal action, or move out, this situation is NO good.

She is 6 yrs old and has never killed another animal before, that I am aware of. I don't think it's something to worry too much about. The biggest thing is if your dog can be controlled while having it's natural instincts you describe racing through it's entire being.

Also, at 21 days after conception it is likely the egg has not even attached itself to the wall of the uterus for nourishment yet. ...

Sometimes it takes that long to quit or to be ready to quit. While smoking during pregnancy isn't smart, at least she quit and didn't smoke around her child.

My boyfriend and I are having a problem with which Minister is going to marry us? We both go to different churches. I have had the same minister since I was young and so has he. Has anyone every had a ceremony with two ministers? Talk it out, maybe you have a civil servant do the ceremony and each minister do a reading? My Husband and I went through the same thing and for US it came down to both or none and they wouldn't work together so it was none, and that worked fine for us. Talk to your man and talk with your minister and see what you can all come up with.

Somebody told you they had stolen something, would you feel it was your responsibility to advise the 3rd party from whom the item was stolen? What if the theft was from the workplace, & would certainly mean that the thief would be fired from their job? No, I wouldn't feel it was my responsibility to advise the 3rd party at all. I WOULD feel responsible to tell the thief that what they did wasn't cool and then stop hanging around and being social with them.

OK Major problem. My 16 y/o niece is pregnant & her parents & the father want her to abort. She said no so he dumped her. She is getting pressured to abort, but I told her that I would help her if she decided she wants it. Am I doing the right thing? It is not the right thing to offer help in one situation. You should let her know she has 3 options 1. Abortion 2. Adoption 3. Parenting and tell her no matter what she chooses you will help her, and that the choice is hers.

Do you think it's ok for a young child (1-3) to run around naked?

Usually around 4-5 kids tend to grow some "Shame" and don't want to be naked around other people very much. I think the child's comfort should be the only factor. (+Sunscreen!)

Does anyone know what a light blue football shaped pill with 7176 on one side and 93 on the other (with a line through the 9 and 3) could be? I found this pill in my daughter's room. Thanks Sertraline Hydrochloride 50 MG http://www.tiscali.co.uk/lifestyle/healthfitness/health_advice/netdoctor/archive/100003853.html Also Known as Zoloft. Some people abuse this drug but it's effect is VERY minimal. Talk to her without accusing her of anything, ask her where she got it and why she kept it, don't put it past her that somebody gave it to her and she was to shy to give...

Answer to:
What do you do if the person you love most has just told you they rely on drugs? Do you stick by them even though they've told you they dont want to quit. Or do you leave them? Would you leave a person if they needed anti-depressants to function properly? DO they function? How long have you not known about this? Do they lie to you?

Found out by accident my wife of 10 months cheated with my best friend twice. She said they broke it off and begged for a 2nd chance when I confronted her, but I don't know if I can ever trust/be intimate with her again. Anyone with experience or advice? I would suggest some time away from her, if you leave her or kick her out even for a week or 2, you will know if you want to get back together or not, either way it will be hard. If you do decide to get back together, make her seek counselling, or go together. If you do decide not to take her back, be strong and remember how much she hurt you. I'm so sorry this happened to you so early.

Should i drink milk while breastfeeding Would you like to? If you drink milk regularly, you don't have to stop just because you are breastfeeding, unless you have reason to think your baby has reacted badly to it.

Answer to:
How do you feel about parents who take their young, noisy children (like, baby age through about age 7) into quiet places like a nice restaurant or church service? Do you get annoyed, or do you accept that the parents might have had no other option? Neither. I think it's fun and a loud child often spices these places up a bit. Is a parent really not supposed to take thier child to church?! Fussing and getting upset about things is an important part of cognitive and social behavioural learning, without doing these things, they don't learn how to properly interact.
